What do you think immediately goes through a gangster rapper’s head when cops slap handcuffs on them? Do they immediately think, “Oh snap! My next album is gonna go platinum in a minute, yo!” Or is it more like, “Oh man, ain’t this ironic?” I’m thinking it’s somewhere in the middle, sort of like, “Yo yo yo, my next album is gonna skyrocket; crap, I hope I don’t get rape in county jail.” All of this, of course, is to lead into this article about how rapper The Game got arrested on suspicion of making criminal threats a few months ago. Which is kind of stupid, if you think about it; gangster rappers like The Game probably makes “criminal threats” about killing someone’s momma or ho or both every other day. Isn’t that what white suburban kids buy their music for?
Frankly, I don’t know if I should dislike The Game for being another lame ass gangster rapper in 2007, or dislike him for the simple fact that he calls himself “The Game”, which gets on my annoyed side just on sheer principle alone. (His real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, in case you were wondering.)
“I call shenanigans on this bust, yo.”
